November 11 - Remembrance Day in Canada

Please take a few minutes from your busy day to remember and pay your respects, not only to the brave Men and Women of Our Armed Forces; but also to the Armed Forces of ALL FREE NATIONS.

Remember those who have fought and stood guard for us, to protect our freedom. And especially those brave souls who have made the ultimate sacrifice and have given their lives so that we may be free.

We owe it to ALL of them - TO NEVER FORGET


Please watch this video: "A Pittance of Time" by Terry Kelly (5m 08s)

Although a Canadian production (1999); it is meant to Honour the Armed Forces of All Nations.

I hope you all find it as moving as I do.

My Personal and Humble Thanks; to each and every one of you.
Many are now gone - none will ever be forgotten.

- Tom (aka - Dirtman)

This means not posting direct links on other websites or forums to images uploaded to the Simviation server. It's to prevent Simviation being used as an image bank. The same rules apply on other forums & image hosting sites like Photobucket.

Yo Hagar;

Just a bit more info if you please.

There is a thread in this forum: "Warp issue".

This is also being discussed concurrently at the SOH CFS2 forum.
As Tango figured this out and posted a very complete explanation; I have placed a link to it from there to here.

- Have I broken the rules?

- Would it have been better to just copy the section of the post & paste it there? (with full credit to Tango & SimV)

- should I undo what I have done? (not a problem)

- should I drink less beer before posting in the future?

- must I now buy rounds for everyone at the "O" club tonight?

- do I ask too many stupid questions? (I'll blame this on Collin)

Thanks for your time;
-Durt

Hi Dirtman. As far as I know there is no reason you can't post a link to any topic on this forum. The rule hellcat-44 mentioned only applies to direct links to images hosted on the Simviation server.
